waxing

(c) 2011-2012 'Safira B'

so i wrap you up
in the golden security blanket
          of my words and
i think for once someone
          could wax lyrical about
me
          that my heart and
soul flickers like candlelight
          that you would indulge
in the hot chocolate of my eyes
          that my caffeinated mocha
skin would keep you up at night
          so i was a fool
to think that someone would write
          how i could burst from stars
and land in your heart, for once.
